miles east of the Hickory Creek
bridge on the Fort Worth Highway.
Wilson said.
Tells of Accident
"Dmk was sitting on a log which
was about six feet off the ground,
and I was leaning against a stump
with my back turned to him when
he was shot.” Wilson said “He had
lust shot a woodpecker a few min-
utes before and I supposed he was
shooting at something else when
I heard the shot. I looked around
and saw him jump from the log
“I grabbed him and asked if he
could make it to the car which
was about a quarter of a mile away
tn the road. He started to run to
the car and when I got to the road
1 found him lying there."
Stead was in the car at the time
and the two men placed Blair in
the machine and rushed him
the hospital He was conscious the
entire trip to town, they said.
In addition to the shot which
penetrated Blair's abdomen sev-
eral struck his right hand and bad-
ly lacerated it. He was resting as
well as could be expected following
the accident, the attending physi-
cian said.
This is the first serious hunting
accident, here this fall.
